Vve rend, under this caption, that the number of cases of mental disorder in the Noith Dakota Slate Hospital has increased steadily from (iiS in . 1!H0 to Mil in IDLiH. This is greater. than the increase in population. There are twice as many patients per 1011,01)1) people as there were IS years ago. "Feeble Minded Patients." Oklahoma Institute for the Feeble Minded reports fil!) cases of this type in l'.)-S to .''(Ki in an ineroiei of more than 50 per cent per population in these six years. "Prison Population Jumps." Tho num ber of prisoners in the state penal institutions of Iowa has moie than doubled in the last IS years, and they are now re ceiving more than twice as many prisoners per unit of popu lation as they were in 11)10, These are typical American states, having so largo a pro portion of native stock that the apparent deterioration can not bo blamed on immigrants. Is tho race really deteriorat ing mentally and morally at this rate? We do not think so. Perhaps it isn't really so in spite of these figures. Peihaps wo are merely taking belter care of mental patients and feeble-minded folk, getting into public institutions those who foiniorly would have been cared for ineffectively at home or left to shift for themselves. P.ut are we ai resting and imprisoning people who for merly would have been allowed at large? The difficulty in convicting offenders doesn't give that impression but it is possibly true. I'nless law enforcement is better than most of us think it is, there has been a moral slump in this country, i'lid it is probable that the prohibition violations have ac counted for much of any increase in jail population. It seems that people engage in the bootlegging business who would not become criminals of any other kind. The increase of those confined to institutions fur meptal disorders may be a good sign. Confinement and stute super- ision is necessary for such cases. They should not be al lowed to propagate their kind, as they may readily do if al lowed at large. Progressive state legislation throughout 'the I. nd aie recognizing a real need for guarding against the in crease oT degenerates. They aie passing laws to enfoice siei ilizal ion when- that is an obvious necessity for the good of society. It's the only way. The fittest will eventually survive, perhaps, but. the process can be speeded and aided by some human culling. Wo find that it pays in poultry, in stuck. We'll find that it pays far more when applied to our own deterioration problem. li.MII.IINK. Ca An linoidaiiicd July TO HOI.

Soincoiio said once that a friend is one who knows all your faults and is still your friend. We think, too, that a friend is someone who likes you well enouph and is interested in you enough to' hear all your troubles and joys and help you or congratulate you, as the ease may require. When you have financial success, no one is more pleased to hear about it than your hanker. When you have financial difficulty, no one is mure eager to give friendly counsel ana aid than your hanker. He's your financial friend. If you cannot go to him with money difficulties or successes and immediate ly secure his friendly attention and interest, some thing must be wrong with him or, possibly, with vou. lie's not only glad but anxious to be your financial counsellor. It's hi- reason for being it's what he's good for, if he's good for anything. Give your banker a chance to be a valuable friend of yours. Uc may not always be able to lend you all (he money you want all the time, but he'll be able to tell you in good business reasons why, for your bene fit as well as the bank's, he thinks it shouldn't be done. And he'll always be able to .rive you the bene fit of long financial experience, of business counsel that should prove very much worthwhile. He is truly anxious to help you realize, vour financial am bitions m a way that will be safe, honorable ami enduring. iCu (Sraufcr Mwnb-T l'"' der;M llt rv e Jfatimtal Heno'irceff, ihT m: Million 'i'oilicth Year Of friendly Sen ice"
